I mind. Of course I mind. But there's nothing I can really do about it, and it's cool to look at

I recently saw a demonstration of http://earth.google.com at my accountant's office, but Google doesn't have it for Mac yet. It's a pretty cool "three-dimentional interface with the planet".

Even the classified stuff shown as blacked out could be seen as strategically useful....like why is that little area in upstate X(name your state) blacked out...I thought only bears and tree huggers hung out there!

Does the download come with spyware? Has any one read the license agreement?

I am quite certain the server will be able to "track" what parts of the earth folks are looking at.. but do I really care? not really...

There is now a beta version of Google Earth for the Mac (unofficially) floating around!

Go to this page and then look for the "Download by CLICKING HERE" link in the middle of the article. You have to go through some time delays and jump through some hoops for the download process, but it works.

This is so cool. On my setup (dual 2.0 GHz G5 with 3.5 GB of RAM, ATI 800XT video , and 30" LCD display) it runs slicker than waxed oil. Your milage may vary. And you need a fast internet connection, that's for sure. But boy is it fun!
